I think it's the case that there are clusters in social-cultural-idiological space where we could find pretty broad agreement that "woke" is an applicable (if perhaps derogatory) label.
I think it's also clearly the case that some segments of the political landscape are using it principally as a slur for anyone who seems to be disagreeing about whatever.
Mo Brooks (Republican congressman from Alabama) was just prominently labeled "woke" by Trump for not falling in line about election stuff. I don't think very many people would place Mo Brooks in (or near) any of the clusters described above.
